Share Themes
You can now choose a theme for your shared charts.
Choose a share theme on the Share Dialog, under settings.
Over 10 different themes are now available.
Users can now zoom into/out of their charts.
This is especially helpful on mobile - zoom out to view the entire chart, or zoom in to inspect chart details.
The zoom buttons are located on the bottom right corner of the screen. Zoom is not yet available in embeds.
Users can now plot multiple columns on a single chart via the
new series dropdown
located on the chart toolbar.Each column is plotted as its own series, and you can choose a different aggregation function (sum, count, min, etc) per series.
Users can still plot a single column with a breakdown (previously known as Groups) by removing all series except one.
New Feature: Users can now
organize their sheets using folders
!From the dashboard, click "My Sheets", then start organizing! You can create, move and delete folders using right click menus, or the new breadcrumb toolbar across the top of the My Sheets page.
Move sheets into folders of your choosing to help organize all your charts!

Data views update
Updated:
The Data tab has received a major update. There are now 2 view tabs available:- Full Dataset
- Plotted Data
The full dataset view shows all of the data in the sheet. You can edit the data, columns, perform transformations and filters as normal. The new Plotted Data view shows data plotted in the chart. This used to be known as Chart Data.
Both data views offer an info sidebar that shows additional information about each dataset.
New:
Users can now choose which views to include in their shares. Shares used to only show the full dataset or the chart. Now shares can show up to 3 views: the full dataset, the plotted data and the chart.Integrate InstaCharts into your workflows using Zapier!

Users can now customize their pie charts with the following settings:
